#12 - A Sit Down with Heather Fronk: Community, Advocacy, and Clothed in Strength

In this episode of the podcast, Chris Mediate sits down with Heather Fronk, CEO and founder of Clothed in Strength, a local nonprofit dedicated to restoring dignity, confidence, and opportunity for low- to moderate-income single mothers and their families. Clothed in Strength exists to bridge the gap between government assistance and financial freedom for those who are working hard but still struggling to meet basic needs — a gap Heather personally knows from her own early experience as a young single mother. Heather shares the powerful story behind the organization’s founding, the principles that guide its work, and the real-world challenges faced by the women it serves. This episode is another reminder that financial well-being, personal confidence, and community support are often more connected than we realize.
